#ThrowbackThursday: Life Was Better When We Drank Either Coke or Pepsi

The taste is night and day...

Yes it is. I rarely drink any pop (soda). If I do...it's only a Mexican coke. Is HEB in Texas only? I don't see one in SE Michigan.

Thanks for the Pepsi pic. I haven't seen one in stores with real sugar.

Life was a lot simpler when we had malt shops instead of Starbucks and everybody drank either Pepsi or Coke.

Look up what was going on at Woolworth's lunch counters back then ...

Yes, it’s a local chain. If this chain is using sugar cane, others may be as well so check around. Better to buy US.

Yep - and when a soda-pop break at the vending machine outside the gas station was just that - 10 oz soda pop and then done with it instead of having one ever-present in one’s hand...

I always liked RC the best. Although Coke is the best mixer.

Is HEB in Texas only?

My brother-in-law lived on Long Island and had a hard time believing there was a grocery store called “HEB”. Our big store in eastern Missouri is “Schnuck’s”. He thinks that’s pretty funny too.

HEB (founded by the Butts family), is only in Texas and NE Mexico.
